So, we have the scrotus coming back into the fray soon. So many sources say thomas should have recused himself long ago on many cases. They don't have to. They're not held accountable. They don't hold each other accountable. I don't know if scrotus can actually force another justice off a case. One thing for sure needs to change and that is life terms.
But why they don't have mechanisms or rules in place may be as simple as every single one of them abuses their position just like thomas. Gifts, money, favors and enjoying complete lifestyles they wouldn't have. Almost 200 thousand salary isn't enough.
But none of them will rock the boat against another because the human nature of it is that person will take them all down with them. Simple group survival on the highest court. Not a peep out of any of them about thomas's publicly exposed abuses and he doesn't even say it's not true. They protect their own.
And now they're going to decide for 300+ million citizens that a president can order a hit on his political opponents and perceived enemies. At the very least, they're going to set free a thousand criminals, telling them it's totally okay to attack your government and it's institutions for your 'freedoms'. All because of the word 'otherwise'. The only single reason they found to reconstruct a settled law. One word. They worked really hard to bend that word. And we can thank some corrupt lawyer for a corrupt cop for the whole thing as well.
